Legend Valve 12M20 Type M Copper Pipe 1/2 in X 20 Ft

Product Description

The LEGEND VALVE 12M20 is a Type M copper pipe measuring 1/2 inch in diameter and 20 feet in length, designed for residential and light commercial plumbing and hydronic heating applications. Type M copper features a thinner wall than Type K or Type L, making it a cost-effective choice where lower pressure ratings are acceptable. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters use this pipe for domestic water supply, baseboard heating loops, and similar systems that require reliable, corrosion-resistant copper construction.

This 1/2-inch Type M copper pipe is suited for indoor water supply lines, radiant heating systems, and general plumbing rough-in work. It meets the dimensional standards required for use with standard 1/2-inch sweat, compression, and press fittings commonly found on residential jobs. It is not recommended for underground burial or applications requiring Type K or Type L wall thickness ratings.

Key Features

• Type M wall thickness — suitable for residential potable water and hydronic systems
• 1/2 inch nominal diameter compatible with standard sweat, compression, and press fittings
• 20-foot straight length for reduced joint count on longer runs
• Copper construction provides natural corrosion resistance and long service life
• Meets ASTM B88 dimensional standards for Type M copper tube

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or new-installation copper pipe for residential and light commercial plumbing systems using 1/2-inch Type M copper tube and compatible fittings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and applicable local codes. Shut off and depressurize the water supply line before cutting into any existing system. Use a pipe cutter sized for 1/2-inch copper and deburr the cut ends before fitting assembly. Type M copper is not approved for below-grade or direct-burial applications without appropriate sleeving or protection.
